Forum Updates Happening

[DerVVulfman]

Dear friends,

Yes, our site went down.   To be more specific, it was down from 5:02 am to 1:41 pm.  However, it was nothing serious.  And as luck would have it, Kirito planned to perform a small kernel upgrade which needed the server to reboot anyway.

The issue, once seen, took less than 5 minutes. 

As to what transpired, I have a suspicion which I plan to discuss with Kirito when he comes back from vacation.  He will be AFK until January. But even if the incident re-occurs, no data will be lost and a reboot on his side is all that is needed to bring the forum back online.  But again, I think I have a small suspicion on what the actual cause may be.

Meanwhile, I am also pleased to announce that the forum's domain has been renewed for another year.

And lastly, all the games accessible from RPG Maker Central's  Completed Project's board have been processed. The final push garnered over twenty more saved indie produced games, and had lost only five in that stretch.  Some games were quite wholesome, some horror-based, and a couple more were fan games.  So by my calculations, the 59 game topics now saved indicates that roughly 70% of the games now remain.

But I am .... not done.   

I thought I was at the final stretch when I hit [POST] upon the last game when I was gifted a new list.  It was a list of games that were not within the RMC's Completed Games board, but were part of the Completed Games board from the site's earlier incarnation as RPGMakerVxAce.Net.

This new list of games from the now-lost RPG Maker indie development site is long, roughly 20% larger than RMC's game collection.  And I have been going through it at warp speed, having examined fifty out of the roughly one-hundred titles.  Of these I examined, twenty do have salvageable games. So by that, I expect to save 40% of the games now presented to me.

After being up till 2:30 am last night, I'm taking a break.
